Almost all Leaders rely on a single [[type]] of Pokémon. For example, [[Erika]] uses only {{type|Grass}} Pokémon in official Gym battles. Some Leaders, however, stray from this mold, albeit rarely. This is evidenced by the different types used by {{ga|Blue}} during his reign as the Gym Leader of the [[Viridian Gym]] in Generation II and IV, although he is the only Gym Leader to do so. However, many Gym Leaders have one or two Pokémon that stray from their type theme, and usually have 3-5 Pokémon at a time.

Geography and climate can often be connected to the type of Pokémon the Gym Leader of that area uses. [[Pastoria Gym]] Leader, [[Crasher Wake]], uses {{type|Water}} Pokémon, a direct allusion to the flooded marsh that surrounds the area and the constant downpour that plagues [[Pastoria City]]. Another example of this is the [[Cinnabar Gym]] Leader, [[Blaine]], who uses {{type|Fire}} Pokémon and lives in a volcanic area.
